Lance was a great presence at the St Francis Soup Kitchen. A wonderful young man. We will pray for him and his family and friends. He will be missed.
Thinking about you and your family during this very difficult time. I’m so sorry for your loss! May the memories you hold dear bring you comfort during the days and nights ahead and may our God Jehovah wrap his loving arms around you until the day when there will be no more tears.
Rev 21:4 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. 4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
Lance was a good person; sweet , calm and caring. i loved having him in my class two years ago. Today at Stanton there were so many students wearing green shirts in memory of Lance. It was said that green was Lance’s favorite color. He was a person of integrity and intelligence and caring. He will be missed and remembered. I am so grateful that I got to have Lance in my classroom and I hope that I can continue to carry his gentle presence with me.
I’m not sure if Lance would have ever remembered me as his classmate since we never talked 1-1 to each other, but I wanted to let his family know the effect his passing has on me still years after the fact. His memory has had a hand in shaping the course of my last five years. His radiant kindness, which needed no formal introduction to be known, helps me see the beauty of life even on grayer days, and I have changed fundamentally in the ways I interact with those around me, for which I thank the richness of my relationships to the lessons I’ve learned from his memory. He also played a role in my decision to move abroad, which I definitely would have hesitated more about if I hadn’t understood the gift of life. I am just one of his many classmates who never got to know him personally, which makes me sure there are many people who could attest to having a similar experience. Thank you, Lance, for the mark you have left on this world. Your kind memory lives on in our hearts.
